The whole "travel through the stars looking for life and intelligence" is just an extension of our exploration of our planet. We're done exploring it and haven't come to terms with the fact that there's nothing left to find (pretty much).


Well, that's not true. We still haven't really mapped out our oceans and with the thermodynamics experiment we're doing with global warming, there's still plenty to explore here.

That said, you're not necessarily wrong, but the most likely reason is for monetary profit and military power. If only we lived in a society of principles like Star Trek...
